tell that to amazon and every other retailer that jacks prices up the week or so before a 'sale'
For Amazon, I use camelcamelcamel to see price history. Personally I’ve not seen price increases just for holiday sales but I also don’t buy a lot of stuff on these sorts of days, I just set a price alert and wait for the email.
Sites like these are why amazon has been using more coupons at check out instead of straight discounts. Messes with the price tracking
How does that help Amazon if on the price tracker it appears $20, but with the coupon it's actually $10?
If I'm using a price tracker and see it for $20 pre-coupon but another site has it for $15, wouldn't that just drive my business to the other site?
It seems like with using coupons it's just artificially inflating the price on whatever trackers, and that seems like it would be bad for sales to me.
The goal is to mess up price history. So it will have a list price of $50 but with a coupon to make it $35. Then a sale day happens and they lower the price to $40. It's 20% off! Good deal.
It doesn't really help if you're comparison shopping with alerts. I don't know that Amazon thinks you're going to go to another site.
Ah, yeah that makes sense now.
